The Kichwa people’s lawsuit over Ecuador’s biggest oil spill in a decade is headed to the country’s highest court!
Indigenous communities’ tireless fight for #JusticeForTheAmazon now hits the steps of Ecuador’s Constitutional (Supreme) Court with an opportunity to set a national precedent and reverse the lower courts’ ruling that reinforced a decades-long legacy of impunity for Ecuador’s oil industry to pollute the Amazon without consequence, and more importantly without remediating the region’s fragile ecosystems or repairing the damage done to Indigenous communities.
In a time of climate crisis, accelerating biodiversity and species loss, and growing unrest due to environmental racism and systemic discrimination against Indigenous people and People of Color, Corte Constitucional del Ecuador has a tremendous opportunity to set an example in Ecuador and worldwide. What happens in the Amazon matters everywhere, and the world will be watching for the outcome of this case.
They need your help. Sign this letter to the Court to ensure the judges hear our global call for justice and the #RightsofNature:
